It is easy to subtract fractions by converting them into decimals first. To convert is numerator divided by denominator. So, 10 1/2 would be 10.5 and 8 3/4 would be 8. 75. Now, you can subtract them. Start at the hundredth place so subtract 5 from 0 ( because 10.5 can also be 10.50) so it would be 5. Next, 5 -7 ( so you borrow 1 from 10 so 5 would become 15 and 10 is 9) is 7. Last, subtract your whole number. 9 - 8 = 1. So, your answer would be 1. 75. To convert it to fraction, you need to write it as 1 75/ 100 and simplify it which is 1 3/4. So, Carla's plant is 1 3/4 inches taller than Yolanda's plant Hope it helps!!!!

What is the value of x?enter your answer in the box .

Katarina [22]

By pythagoras Theorem.

x² +12²=13²

=>x² +144 =169

=>x² =169-144=25

=>x=√25=5 unit.

Hence x=5 is your answer.

Hope it helps...

Analyze the diagram below and complete the instructions that follow.

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

$x= 7, y=4\sqrt{2}$

<em>Correct option B.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows a trapezoid with a base angle of 45° and the other base angle of 90°.

We have completed the diagram to draw a perpendicular line over the base of height h=4. A triangle is formed with an angle of 45°.

Recall a right triangle with angles of 45° is isosceles, thus the base and the height are h=4. Please check the diagram below.

For that triangle, we apply Pythagora's Theorem:

$y^2=4^2+4^2=2*4^2$

Thus:

$y=\sqrt{2*4^4}=4\sqrt{2}$

$y=4\sqrt{2}$

The base of the trapezoid x is h + 3 = 7

Thus:

$\mathbf{x= 7, y=4\sqrt{2}}$

Correct option B.
